Cave of the Winds, Niagara Falls – A Captivating Experience

There are many ways you can choose to see and feel the magnificence of Niagara Falls – from the air by helicopter or plane; standing along the majestic river’s banks; or floating among the spray and foam at the Falls’ base with a scenic cruise.

But one of the most treasured Niagara Falls experiences, however, is the memorable Cave of the Winds Niagara Falls tour.

The original Cave of the Winds was located behind the Bridal Veil Falls (the smallest of the three Niagara Falls). Visitors could explore the cave and view the Falls from this unique and breathtaking vantage point. The cave was, however, destroyed by rock fall in 1920 – but the chance for an up-close encounter with Niagara Falls still remains!

Today, the Cave of the Winds tour lets you venture up to the front of the base of the Bridal Veil Falls where the pounding water creates exhilarating tropical storm conditions.

You take a 175-foot elevator ride down to the base of the Falls where you are provided with a yellow souvenir poncho and special sandals. Now you can safely venture out on to the redwood walkways and platforms that take you to within 20 feet of the Falls!

The walkways are removed each autumn so that they are not damaged by the winter weather. Seasonal tickets to the Cave of the Winds let you visit the area to watch the decking being erected again for the next tour season. Watch as skilled workmen wedge the wooden support beams securely into the crevices of the rocks and position the walkway atop them.

While Cave of the Winds tickets can be purchased separately, you can also book a Niagara Falls tour that already has a visit to this amazing attraction conveniently bundled in. You get the thrill of the Cave of the Winds plus other awesome adventures in one great package.

More Marvelous Ways to Enjoy Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls tours are never short on fun and exciting things to do. Apart from the invigorating Cave of the Winds tours, here are a few other incredible ways to thoroughly enjoy the Niagara Falls.

Maid of the Mist

Journey right up to the Falls’ crashing foam on a famed Maid of the Mist tour. Feel the mist from the Falls against your face while you wear a complimentary blue poncho from the boat’s crew to protect your clothing. This popular tour operates during the spring and summer when the weather at the Falls is at its finest!

Hornblower Niagara Cruise

Take a Hornblower Niagara Cruise aboard a state-of-the-art catamaran and visit each of the three separate falls. Hornblower’s night cruise gets high marks from visitors who absolutely love seeing the nightly light show where a rainbow of colors illuminates the Falls.

Skylon Tower

Hop across the Border

You can tour Niagara Falls from just the American side or the Canadian side or better yet, join a tour that lets you hop across the border and get the satisfaction of seeing all there is to see from both vantage points.

Visit the Three Falls

Some Niagara Falls tours will take you to the three distinct falls that make up this natural wonder – the thunderous Horseshoe Falls; the W-shaped and slowly eroding American Falls; and the Bridal Veil Falls where the Cave of the Winds is located.

Helicopter and Plane Tours

Book a pleasurable Niagara Falls helicopter tour so you can soar above the roaring waters as they tumble over the Falls’ edge.
